Lillycombe

The road from Porlock (large village at the seaward end of the
marvellous Vale of Porlock) to Lynmouth has perhaps
the most spectacular views of any road in the South West - of the sea to
Wales on one side, heather hills and deep valleys on the other. About 5 miles
from Porlock, 7 from Lynmouth, a private lane takes you down half a mile of
rhododendron-banked driveway, avoiding meandering pheasants, to the fine
house of a family-owned 850 acre estate. You are welcome to walk the estate
(adhering to the normal country code). Paths lead into the Oare valley of Lorna
Doone legend, and to Culbone Church, the smallest in England. This is one of
the most beautiful and romantic parts of Exmoor.
